Wrong attachment, but here ya go. Otzi the iceman knife. Made by condor and is a dimensional copy of the knife Otzi was found with. Way up a mountain they found a caveman frozen in ice back in the 90s. They named him otzi the iceman. His knife was flint and wood, sinew cord maybe for wrap. This has 1075HC and brass wire.I just got this from baryonyx knife company, owned by a forum member. Also they will sharpen it if you request that. They did an excellent job sharpening this, laser sharp polished edge. Cool knife and comes with leather neck sheath/braided leather cord.I’m not a huge Demko fan, but the black and red is a cool color scheme!

It refers to his assisted-opener mechanism.Neat looking, what's the Formula One in reference to? Made from used parts off one of the HAAS F1 cars?

You are a tough knife dude from way back so I will be candid , rather than take the wiser choice and say nothing at all . . .

Those might be the best looking ones I have ever seen.
Who makes those scales?
No idea, bought both without any knowledge who made them bc they looked incredible to me.Who makes those scales?

you really should have put a warning at the beginning of this post : " the following image may cause orgasm " .

I'd say you're wrong, I think it has great ergonomics...I'll do a post and video soon most likely.You are a tough knife dude from way back so I will be candid , rather than take the wiser choice and say nothing at all . . .
er . . . first the positive :
on first glance it looks like a large handle relative to a small blade ; I tend to like that in a knife I am going to get in there and use . ( though the specs tell me the blade is longer than it looks )
Titanium handle nearly always gets high marks from me.
I like the copper ring at the pivot.
Then I start to go the other way :
as far as gripping the knife up near the pivot it looks to me as of the handle is upside down from what I prefer ; under / edge side is close to the blade and top side no place to put my thumb .
Thinish , sharpish , out of phase lumpy " finger grooves " on the bottom of the handle . I make my Spyderco Rhino work so I guess . . .
From staring questioningly at what I must assume is the lock releases I am once again swooning and looking for my fainting couch . . .
tell me I am being stupid ( I love it when I am wrong ).
